This deluxe illustrated edition features five exclusive full-colour paintings, a specially reset text and is housed in its own slipcase. Limited to just 500 copies, it is signed by Frederik Pohl, Brian Aldiss, who provides a foreword, and the artist, John Harris. Arthur C Clarke's signature appears as a facsimile.

30 light years away, a race known simply as the One Point Fives are plotting a dangerous invasion plan, one that will wipe humankind off the face of the Earth…

Meanwhile, in Sri Lanka, a young astronomy student, Ranjit Subramanian, becomes obsessed with a three-hundred-year-old theorem that promises to unlock the secrets of the universe. While Ranjit studies the problem, tensions grow between the nations of the world and a UN taskforce headed up by China, America and Russia code-named Silent Thunder begins bombing volatile regimes into submission.

On the eve of the invasion of Earth a space elevator is completed, helped in part by Ranjit, which will herald a new type of Olympics to be held on the Moon. But when alien forces arrive Ranjit is forced to question his own actions, in a bid to save the lives of not just his own family but of all of humankind.

Co-written with fellow grand master Frederik Pohl, The Last Theorem not only provides a fitting end to the career one of the most famous names in science fiction but also sets a new benchmark in contemporary prescient science fiction. It tackles with ease epic themes as diverse as third world poverty, the atrocities of modern warfare in a post-nuclear age, space elevators, pure mathematics and mankind’s first contact with extra-terrestrials.

This deluxe quarterbound edition features five stunning colour plates by acclaimed artist, John Harris, which were specially commissioned for this edition, and a foreword by fellow SF grandmaster Brian Aldiss. The book features the fully reset and corrected text, is signed by all contributors (Arthur C Clarke’s signature appears in facsimile) and is limited to just 500 numbered copies; it is housed in a matching slipcase and will be a treasured addition to any collector’s library.

Disjointed - contractual obligation novel
By zargb5
I am a long time SF reader. I picked this gem up for a mere £1 (for the hardback version) I think i paid too much for it to be honest. The bits which are obviously Clarke (about 33% of the novel) are the dullest parts. Pohl's contribution raises the bar a little. The only really interesting parts of the novel are the brief descriptions of math tricks and problems (of which there are too few to sustain the readers interest through the turgid conservative middle class dialogue and what passes for a plot.The plot consists of old ideas patched together which were done far better in their original forms years previously. Pohl occasionally adds a bit of gritty realism (ie torture sequences) but these when contrasted against the grand absurd theme of the grand galactics just show the novel to be even more unbelievable and ridiculous.The super intelligent aliens (the grand galactics)come across as ill thought out and would have been better portrayed as in a comic parody ala HGTTG.The book is a disjointed affair, the last theorem has nothing at all to do with the main plot at all. The main plot is also not worth the ink or paper used to print it on.Overall a sad ending to Clarke's brillant career and Pohl does little better. But he has't written anything decent for 20 years either.Heaven forbid that any new readers to Clarke & Pohl get their hands on this travesty. Please new readers to these authors please check out Clarke's "2001:A Space Odyssey" "The City & The Stars" "Rendezvous with Rama" and Pohl's "Starchild Trilogy" "Man Plus" & "Gateway" to name just a few classics. They are way above the level of this monster.I read all of this novel and by the time i got to the end i wished i had not wasted my time and had read something more worthy. The whole thing comes over as a contractual obligation exercise. Avoid at all costs.

My theory
By JohnMD
I did enjoy reading this book ,but I have many reservations . It is exactly what you might expect from two different authors writing a book without any feedback from each other . Fred Pohl was one of the best Sci-fi writers as was Arthur C Clarke .In his latter years Arthur C seems to have let others expand his ideas with less than great results .Not perhaps the best work to end their writting lives with . Never mind , there's a load of great stuff avialable from both writers . When will we get Fred Pohls' works on Kindle ?

A sad disappointment
By Katamari King
When I saw this, I thought it sounded promising with its talk of Alien invasion and the World being on the brink of nuclear war.Instead of the exciting thriller that was expected, it delivered an insipid, at times downright boring tale during which I spent the entire time waiting for some decent plot development instead of lots of pointless little side stories that amounted to nothing. One of the most frustrating things about this book, was the so called "Alien threat" Rather than the menacing invasion promised on the back cover, it was presented as an almost comedic event and dismissed in a really abrupt and unconvincing manner. It would also have been nice if the main character solving Fermat's Last Theorem was somehow relevant to the rest of the story, but it just seemed like a red herring. As a big science fiction fan, over the years I have read and enjoyed many of Clarke's classic stories. Sadly this was a real disappointment. I'm just glad this isn't the book he will be remembered for.
